Procedure
(NH4)2WO4 (15.0 g: 52.8 mmoles) is added to about 400 ml of water to which 25 ml of ammonium hydroxide and 5 ml of 30 percent hydrogen peroxide are added. The ammonium tungstate is dissolved slowly by heating the mixture to about 80° C. with stirring. After a clear homogenous solution forms, the solution is cooled to room temperature. The solution is added to a flask containing 25.0 g of alumina (Catapal SB 20-35 mesh: 280 m2 /g). The resulting mixture is rotary evaporated to remove water, and then calcined in a muffle furnace at 300° C. overnight to yield a supported ammonium tungstate or tungsten oxide.
